bay area pushing for voters to pass prop 30 and reject prop 32. dozens of educators were on hand at the news conference to show their support. proposition 30 would prevent billions of cuts in schools and colleges. prop 32 prevents unions from using their political dues for political purposes. the union dues for political purposes. brown says he values the quality of education he got and wants to make sure that quality continues. >> we need in school not just standardized tests that come out of some washington bureaucracy. but we also need arts programs and science programs. field trips. librari librarians. counselors. >> those who were against prop 30 say it doesn't guarantee any new funding for schools but rather kills jobs and is harmful to small businesses. the yes on prop 32 campaign

argues that it removes special interest money from politics. much more ahead for you on "today in the bay." more information on iran's nuclear program and planned talks with the u.s. decision 2012 and race for the white house. the latest on the campaign trail and prep for tomorrow night's third and final presidential debate. one of the biggest moments in bay area sports history turned 30 this weekend. we'll hear from the stanford trombone player that got toppled all those years ago.

welcome back to the program. good sunday morning. thanks for spending part of it with us. look at that beautiful sky that's over san francisco this morning. bit of an orange tinge to it. rob mayeda thinks that's a prediction on how the game is going to end up tonight? >> i think that's a good sign. orange start to the day around the bay area. that's high cloud cover being lit from below by the sun rising in the east and we'll see temperatures today as clouds thicken up running a bit cool. the lack of clouds overnight allowed our temperatures to drop off in low 40s around parts of the north bay. a chilly start. you need a jacket this morning pretty much no matter where you are. mid 40s in san jose down toward gilroy. 53 in san francisco. 56 in oakland. the winds right now not too bad. we're seeing winds generally 5 to 15 miles per hour. later today we'll see winds 15 to 25 miles per hour as a cold front approaches the coast later

on tonight. the story of the day will be increasing clouds thickening up as we go through the afternoon and then tonight into tomorrow morning, that looks to be the main event for the first system and the colder air arriving with it will drop snow levels down in the sierra starting off near 6,000 feet and as low as 5,000 feet by tomorrow night. the raiders game getting started earlier in the afternoon. breezy at times out at the coliseum. mid 60s. for giants coming up later in the afternoon, numbers in the low 60s. southerly winds picking up. we may see some of that making some locally gusty conditions around the ballpark toward 6:00, 7:00. a chance of a few sprinkles if the game runs late but main rain will hold off until after midnight tonight. clouds rolling in. here's the cold pocket of air that will drop down the coast and increase the chances of seeing rain tonight. mainly clouds by day and then here comes the rain out of the north bay into tomorrow morning. and then a brief break around

midday and then notice this. another wave of showers and rain filling in again by monday night. in terms of total rainfall, first 24 hours, maybe approaching close to an inch in the north bay. half inch around san francisco and oakland. quarter inch or less for areas around san jose. look at the sierra. this is very impressive to get this much snow in about 24 hours time this early in the season. relatively low snow levels for this time of year and maybe up to about 20 inches plus above 6,000 feet with this first system coming in into monday and tuesday. winter storm warning for the sierra tonight through tuesday morning. 60s and to near 70 degrees south of san jose today. tri-valley seeing similar numbers. mid 60s san francisco. upper 60s around oakland. a very active weather pattern. the strongest part of the first storm will come in tonight into monday morning. a little more showers for tuesday and then one more system to get by. this will be wednesday into thursday. that will be another round of rain. then once we lose that, we will

get clearing skies and maybe fog approaching next weekend. so this is actually a good pattern to get into. it will help to suppress fire season. the first storms that pack wind tend to bring down branches and things like that. if you have time today, clean the rain gutters and remove the weakened branches around the house. >> that works also for the storm gutters in the street as well. usually the first storm comes through all of the leaves get backed up and you get even if not a lot of rain, you get localized flooding. >> looks like a challenging commute tomorrow as well. >> okay. thank you. an amazing shower of light over the bay area skies is over. >> it's the meteor shower. clear skies last night. it's starting to fade away as we say. >> this weekend was your best chance to see the shower at its highest activity. the meteors are debris left over from haley's comet as it orbits around the sun. as the earth passes through,

streaks race across at 148,000 miles per hour. if you missed it, wait until next year. next october for the next meteor shower to return. the ax is staying at the farm. stanford pounding cal during yesterday's 115th playing of the annual big game. the cardinal got off to a fast start. taylor finds the end zone with this touchdown. finishing the day with 189 yards rushing. cal bears couldn't find the end zone. the cardinals defense stepped up their game. stanford wins 21-3 marking the third straight big game victory. big game yesterday may not have been one for the record books but we have the play. the most dramatic end to a college football game ever. this weekend marks the 30th anniversary. monte francis reports from uc berkeley campus with reminiscing

from key players. >> he's going to go into the end zone. >> it was 1982. cal was trailing stanford by one with four seconds to go in the game, stanford kicked off. the ball was lateraled from player to player and as cal neared the end zone the stanford band was on the field celebrating what it thought was a team victory. >> i didn't realize that when the clock ran down to zero that the ball was still alive and by the time i turned around to look at the field i saw this cal player in the end zone. >> that player was kevin. he scored winning the game for cal but not before knocking over a young trombone player. >> the bears have won! the bears have won! oh my god! >> it was two seconds of my life 30 years ago but sort of incredible thing is that probably every month of my life since then someone has asked me about that two seconds of my

life. >> i tell you, it doesn't feel like it was 30 years ago. still feeling good about it. >> go cal! >> that moment is now a part of sports history and helped fuel the long standing rivalry between cal and stanford. they attended the game at cal today and reminisced about those few seconds that changed both of their live its three decades ago. >> a great memory to have down the road as you get older. one of those moments when you were a young player at cal and a great thing to remember. >> reporter: the chief financial officer now and one works for coldwell banker. the two have kept in touch over the years. >> just saw him a few days ago. i swear he's not aged. a good guy as ever. you know, god bless him and his family. >> reporter: both men assure us there have never been any hard feelings. >> he kept a pretty good perspective about it.

it was an historical game but he had fun with it now as well. it's all good. >> he wants an apology from me. >> reporter: monte francis. >> that was monte francis reporting. the trombone is on display at the college football hall of fame. the education issue in this year's election. we'll break down two propositions you have seen ads for. billions of cuts hang in the balance. what you need to know before you vote on either of them.

'cause we love chex. [ male announcer ] love chex? connect with us on facebook.

education is a huge issue this election season and not just for parents but all taxpayers. if you turned on the television any time in the last couple months, you likely have seen ads for props 30 and 38. measures that would help prevent deep cuts to education through higher taxes. in this morning's reality check, sam brock looks at the ads and propaganda behind them.

>> for students and california's teacher, vote yes on 30. >> governor jerry brown's face has been a fixture on tv these days. they're trying to win over your vote for competing tax hike plans. prop 30 and prop 38 that claim to save education from the brink in the golden state. >> i've seen this one. >> reporter: dr. john elwood, budgetary expert under a professor at berkeley's goldman's school of public policy agreed to sit down with nbc bay area to vet the truthfulness of the ads. >> compared to other television ads, those ads are both relatively accurate. >> reporter: relatively accurate perhaps but he was able to poke some holes. let's start with prop 30 which predicts $6 billion in revenue a year to be used primarily for education by raising taxes on high income earners and the sales tax. >> 30 will restore funding for schools and colleges.

>> will strip accountability with money that can't be touched by politicians. >> reporter: the cuts are restorative in that the budget will cut 5 billion in k through 14 spending unless voters pass prop 30 and that's written in stone. >> it's a negative argument. this money will prevent those cuts because only if you give them these dollars will you not have these automatic cuts. >> reporter: to get to the heart of the issue, what about future years after this one? despite promises of prop 30 revenues must go to classrooms, elwood says there's nothing preventing california politicians from using the general fund money for other needs. >> you don't know in prop 30. what he says is trust me in my budget i will spend the money, you know, in the following way. legally it's not required. >> it's only going to be used

for schools. >> no one else is going to be able to do anything with that money. >> reporter: as for prop 38 which estimates some 10 billion a year for the next decade through a progressive income tax hike, the main selling point is that all of the money goes straight to the classroom. is that true? what about the money dedicated to addressing state education bonds or ious in the first few years? >> there the arguments get more convoluted. in effect, those bonds have to be paid back. interest on those bonds have to be paid back. so if you don't pay off the bonds, that money has to come from somewhere. >> that was sam brock reporting. we'll be right back.

good morning, everyone. coming up on 7:30 this morning. thank you so much for making us part of your sunday morning. looking out at at&t park this morning. rising sun is giving it an orange glow.

we think that may be a tip-off as to who may win tonight's game. certainly an exciting one. thanks for joining us. i'm garvin thomas in for kris sanchez. meteorologist rob mayeda is here. important stuff not just the giants forecast, the raiders forecast, and important news about tomorrow morning's commute. >> san mateo bridge they are doing repairs too. that's through 5:00 tomorrow morning. we'll see perhaps rain coming in later on tonight. right now it's chilly outside. we don't have rain outside in terms of the forecast right now. it's cold. we have 40s and 50s. winds picking up through the afternoon. right now southeast winds in san jose. you can see clouds out there. these are mid and high level clouds. not rain producers just yet. those are getting the act together offshore. during the day we'll see increasing clouds. winds out of the south 60s to near 70-degree temperatures at best inland today. mid 60s around san francisco. by 4:00 or just after 4:30 first pitch time, looks like increasing clouds. wind picking up out of the south. if the game goes into extra

innings, maybe some sprinkles out there. the main effects of this first system does look like it will come in after midnight tonight and impact the monday morning commute. a full look at the seven-day forecast coming up. >> rob, thank you very much. the bay area is buzzing of course with excitement as san francisco giants prepare to play game six of the national league championship series today. they got to win if they want their playoff run to continue. comcast sports amy gutierrez is live with a preview of this afternoon's game six. amy? >> reporter: thanks so much, garvin. exciting stuff. the giants able to grab a win back in st. louis and assure a trip back west for the fans like you mentioned. game six tonight is a rematch of the nlcs game two where vogelsong went up against chris carpenter. the first win at home in this postseason. the giants showed up yesterday for a voluntary practice but of course the story line is ryan

vogelsong. he had his back up against the wall before. another must win situation. it's deja vu. >> i feel like we've been in this situation before with cincinnati and it's not over until last out. i think both teams that are playing right now proved that in the first round. we're just going to play hard until the end and see what happens. >> reporter: a couple good things for fans. ryan vogelsong two starts in the playoffs allowing seven hits and has 1.5 e.r.a. also these starting pitchers really do feed off each other. of course barry zito went last for the giants in game five and he threw up a gem. that bodes well for giants tonight. let's get it back to you. >> giants fans are crossing fingers and thinking good things hoping for a win today. as amy mentioned, many credit

pitcher barry zito for keeping the giants season alive on friday. seven strong innings striking out six batters. zito mania is sweeping across giants fans. a twitter hash tag called rally zito is trending. fans will back the team despite the roller coaster of emotions. >> it's the way of life. we just live for the torture. it's the only way we know. >> there's been a lot of games and a lot of series like the last series before this one where we were biting our fingernails. >> zito's game five win was his first postseason victory since 2006 back when he pitched for the oakland a's. the giants could have a busy week ahead of them if they're fortunate. a win today means they play at at&t park tomorrow. if they win that game, to the world series with game one in san francisco on wednesday.

since june, the 11 statewide ballot initiatives in california have received a staggering $336 million in contributions. at the present rate it's likely as much $500 million will be spent and collected by november 6th. what impact do they have on the democratic process? let's ask larry gerston. let me see. 500 million that's half a billion. >> amazing. >> this could add up to something. i understand for president. you hear numbers for president. why the money flows in there. why so much money with the initiatives. >> it's about policy making. there are two ways we make laws in california. the traditional conventional way. we know this. we read about this in civic classes. the other way we do it in this state and others is through ballot propositions on the

thorniest, thickest, ugliest issues that no one wants to talk about in sacramento. stay away. so advocates of various sides throw these things on the ballot. hard for us to understand as well. and tons of money go into or against these very, very important often poisonous ballot propositions. >> i can see in a way often people will support a candidate, a person thinking this person will be more favorable to more line of work or industry. when you get to the initiatives, it's good for this group and not that group. i can see where the real money pours in because someone who supports it and could see a benefit, they could see real material benefit from proposition when you are losing. >> most of us are unschooled about this stuff. it's helpful to see who is for or against those propositions because that helps us align our own values in how we're going to act. >> we're here to school it. thank you very much.

so which ones are capturing the most attention and most money? where is the money going these days? >> proposition 32. that's a big one. we've heard about that. it's the one that would ban official unions and corporations from collecting campaign contributions from the members. it's really sort of an anti-union thing if you strip away everything and get to the bottom of it. it's drawn $103.6 billion so far. predictably, corporations, unions lining up on the yes side. corporations lining up on the yes side. unions on the no side. it's a big thing. second largest not too far behind is idea of proposition 30. sam brock was talking about that. the temporary tax proposal by governor brown to save public education funding. both sides together have contributed 93.9 million. these are big bucks. we're not talking about coffee money here. education groups and unions on the yes side. anti-tax groups on the no side. large amounts of money for major propositions that could affect us all.

>> how is prop 32 polling? >> prop 32 polling shows it losing slightly. remember the rule of thumb. if something doesn't have well over 50% going in, chances are it's going to go down. they spent $60 million to try to defeat it. >> any other trends you look at with props this year? >> a couple things that sort of stand out that we haven't thought about before. two trends. first, individuals have put in huge amounts -- i've been watching this for a long time. when you see people put in money, millions of dollars, it really has an impact on what might happen. look at our leaderboard if we can call it that. molly munger, advocate for prop 38, $33 millions she's put in. that's almost the entire proposition. charles munger, oddly enough her brother, $23 million for proposition 32. tom steyer a hedge fund manager, 22 million. l of the funding for proposition 39.

then there's george joseph, insurance company executive. $16 million. almost all of the funding for proposition 33. sing ha single handedly individuals provided all of the funding for one side or the other. this has the impact and potential to affect impact of this proposition down at the end. >> only a couple seconds back. talk about the presidential debate tomorrow night. we've gone through two debates. top sick foreign policy. someone say not that exciting. give me a reason to watch. >> two major things pop out to me. the candidates must bring their a game. this time that is it. no sleeping if you are president obama. no. no. no. no major gaffes if your contender romney. binder full of women or libyan misstatement. there's no time for repairs after monday. you are talking two weeks. candidates have to be aggressive. not nasty but aggressive.

respectful, if you will, in making points and distinguishing their policy because this is the time they have to show a clear vision to clearly distinguish themselves from each other. it's after monday all that people have left to do is just say, gosh what do i do now? >> thank you so much once against. we'll be right back. have you heard of the new dialing procedure for the 408 and 669 area codes? no, what is it? starting october 20, 2012, if you have a 408 or 669 number, you'll need to dial 1

plus the area code plus the phone number for all calls. o.k., but what if i have an 408 number and i'm calling a 408 number? you'll still need to dial 1 plus the area code plus the phone number. so when in doubt, dial it out!

welcome back. high clouds out there this morning over the bay bridge toll plaza. beautiful sunrise moments earlier. we watch for clouds filling in. for raindrops just yet. by tonight into tomorrow, that's when things are really going to change. it's chilly outside. most of the bay area this morning waking up to mid 40s around the south bay. low 40s in the north bay. winds right now starting to pickup a little bit out of the south. the real wind will pick up probably towards tonight and early tomorrow as a cold front approaches the coast. we'll see winds out of the south 15 to 30 miles per hour. steadily turning more cloudy

through the day. winds through the afternoon and evening and tonight into monday morning, the main rain event arrives monday we'll see rain changing to showers for afternoon and some pretty chilly air that will drop snow levels starting off near 6,000 feet maybe as low as 5,000 feet by monday night. here are high clouds you see there. beautiful sunrise around the bay area. the rain producing clouds still offshore. probably another 12 hours or so away from starting to move in. we'll see through the day the clouds thickening up. less sunshine through the afternoon and evening and then rain starting off in the north bay spreading south for your monday morning commute and then maybe a mid afternoon break in terms of widespread rain. we'll change to scattered showers and then another band of rain comes in as we go into monday night and tuesday and one more beyond that as we head into wednesday and thursday. first 24 hours of rainfall some of the totals for the first storm we think closer to just over half inch to maybe an inch in some of the hills of the north bay. about a third of an inch around the peninsula and east bay. then noticeably less as you head

down to san jose. this is just the first wave into early tuesday morning again by the end of the week we could see maybe three to four inches of rain in the north bay and inch and a half around the central bay and maybe about an inch for san jose for five-day rain totals between monday and friday. first wave of snow in the sierra. snow levels dropping to 5,000 feet tomorrow means this is impressive. maybe a foot or two of snow coming in between now and early tuesday morning. this is an ideal pattern for getting a lot of snow in the sierra in winds come in out of the southwest. mid to upper 60s for highs around the south bay turning cloudy and breezy into the afternoon. warmest places inland close to 70 degrees. and then tonight, raindrops flying. we'll see temperatures dropping off. much cooler on monday. upper 50s to low 60s for highs. and then notice the chance of showers as we go into wednesday and thursday. i think once you get past wednesday system, things will be drying out. our main concern may be patchy fog heading toward next weekend warming up friday into next

saturday. >> thank you very much. it's do or die for san francisco giants once again. the team faces elimination this afternoon for game six of the nlcs. comcast sports net amy gutierrez is live at at&t park with an update. >> reporter: if the giants know anything, they know what it's like to face elimination. they were down two games to none in the nlds and then swept the reds and tonight we have ryan vogelsong on the mound. it's a rematch from game two against carpenter. giants, almost all of them, showing up for a voluntary practice yesterday which shows a lot of gusto for a team that's very, very tired at this point in the season. they are all excited with ryan on the mound. he was their guy in game three of that nlds and a must win situation that came through. here's what hunter pence had to say about tonight's starter. >> it's incredible what he's

done. you know, we definitely would not be here if it wasn't for his performance. and really just looking forward to getting out there and playing behind him again. >> reporter: that performance in the playoffs right now vogelsong has two starts with 1.5 e.r.a. and over 12 innings only allowed seven hits and he owns the only win here at home in the postseason for the giants. garvin, these guys really do feed off each other and barry zito was the last starter for the giants threw a gem in game five to get the giants back west. 7 2/3 innings of shutout baseball. ryan vogelstrong on the mound for the giants tonight. >> giants fans are rallying behind today's starting pitcher with enchiladas. he says he must eat chicken
